I believe the answer is:

sack

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'get rid of' is the first definition.
(as in sacking a worker)

'outdated alcoholic drink' is the second definition.
'sack' can be an answer for 'drink' (sack is a kind of drink). I'm not sure about the 'outdated alcoholic' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sack that I've seen before include "Fire - plunder and destroy" , "It carries coal" , "Loot the large bag" , "See 12" , "boot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
